  • Length101 - 1000 ft.
  • Clean signal via light transmission eliminates RFI and EMI interference
  • Low-loss 1 mm synthetic fiber core preserves high-fidelity audio detail
  • Gold-plated ferrules resist corrosion for lasting connection integrity
  • Molded strain reliefs protect cable-to-connector joints from stress
  • Precision-polished fiber tips with protectors ensure maximum signal transfer

What this cable connects

This Toslink digital optical audio cable carries a light-based signal between two Toslink male ports. It is suited for connecting DVD players, CD players, MiniDisc decks, DAT recorders or similar digital audio equipment. The 6.5 ft length fits typical rack or shelf spacing in a home system.

Bandwidth and distance limits

Optical transmission removes RFI, EMI and ground-loop noise by design, so the signal stays clean at any volume level. The 1 mm low-loss synthetic fibre core and precision-polished tips keep jitter low, but the specification only covers runs between 101 and 1000 ft, so very short desktop links fall outside the rated range.

Installing and common issues

Molded strain reliefs and a flexible PVC jacket make routing straightforward and protect the fibre at the connector junction. Gold-plated ferrules resist corrosion, while the supplied tip protectors must stay on until the moment of connection to avoid contaminating the polished ends. The only frequent problem is forgetting to remove those protectors before plugging in.

Questions about this item

Is the 6.5 ft length the right choice for my home audio setup?

At 6.5 ft this cable suits typical living-room distances between a TV or receiver and a soundbar or DAC; measure your run first because the same line is offered up to 1000 ft for longer routes.

What does the OD 5.0 figure tell me about signal quality in my system?

OD 5.0 refers to the cable’s outer diameter in millimetres; the thicker jacket protects the 1 mm low-loss core and gold-plated ferrule so the optical signal stays clean from RFI, EMI and ground-loop noise.

Will the Toslink connectors work with the optical port on my soundbar and game console?

Yes, both ends are standard Toslink male plugs compatible with any device that has a square optical S/PDIF port — DVD players, CD players, MiniDisc decks, DAT recorders, soundbars, consoles and AV receivers.
